    Andrew Crawford
    Andrew Crawford, deceased, was born in North Carolina, August 19, 1832, and died in Wayne County, Iowa, April 12, 1877. He was a son of Aaron Crawford, a farmer of North Carolina, and when quite small left his native State and accompanied his parents to Knox County, Kentucky, and when twelve years old, to Laurel County, in the same State. He received only a common-school education, his attendance being limited to the subscriptions schools of the early day.
    In 1854 he removed with his family to Putnam County, Missouri, where he lived nine years, and in 1863 moved to Appanoose County, Iowa, and thence in the fall of 1875 to Wayne County and settled on the farm where he died and where his widow now lives. He was for many years a member of the Christian church, and was an upright, conscientious man, and perfectly honorable in all his dealings. He was liberal and benevolent and was ever ready to assist any who were in need, and his friends were legion. In his death his family lost a devoted husband and father and the township a valuable citizen.
    Mr. Crawford was married December 4, 1851, to Lurinda Stansbury, a daughter of Samuel Stansbury, and a native of Laurel County, Kentucky. To them were born fourteen children, nine of whom are living-James W., a physician of Pleasanton, Iowa; Mrs. Jeanetta Berry, Susan R., Andrew M., Mary E., Jacob, Scevy, Dulcena E. and Cassie A. Samuel and Levi died after reaching maturity, and Lurinda Catherine, aged twelve years.
